People all over the United States are celebrating Christmas with lights and festoons. In a residential area in Texas, people decorate the house with colorful Christmas lights. Some families’ Christmas decorations also carry current affairs and politics. An owner of the house explained why he wanted to make Christmas decorations. He said: “Many people were amazed after seeing our Christmas decorations. They said: I have never seen such decorations. This makes us feel relieved. We feel that our efforts are worthwhile.”
For many Americans, a permanent symbol of Christmas is the National Christmas Tree on the National Mall in Washington. In an evening celebration, the Christmas lights on this tree are usually lit by the president or first lady. For many Christians, Christmas candles may be the best gift.
In Minnesota, a shopkeeper named Kim Firth is selling candles with the fragrance of Jesus, according to him. She said that this scent can bring comfort to people. This candle is made by a devout Christian couple based on the Bible’s records. The Bible mentions that Jesus’ clothes had the scent of myrrh, scented wood, and cinnamon.
